Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Maurice Francis Egan
President Roosevelt tells Maurice Francis Egan that he wants to accept the bronze sculpture that John Boyle sent him. However, he does not feel that it would be fair to the competition, so he cannot accept it. Roosevelt wants Egan to contact Boyle to know how much the bronze figure costs so Roosevelt might discretely purchase it later.
